To achieve a flexible and transparent conductive film via a simple method, ceria/polypyrrole nanocomposite particles were coated on Piranha-treated polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) film as the flexible substrate. Photo-induced polymerization was carried out by cerium (III) nitrate hexahydrate dissolved in acetonitrile and irradiation by UV wavelengths for 2 h. The effect of Piranha treatment on deposition of the conductive nanocomposite particles was examined. Deposited PEN samples prepared at various conditions were characterized using FESEM, AFM and STM, UV-vis spectroscopy, four-probe conductivity and contact angle measurements. Adhesion quality of the deposited nanoparticles was investigated by Scotch-tape test.
